Lyrics:

Far away, ‘neath eastern skies,
Shine two eyes, starry eyes!
They belong to one I prize,
Little maid Tizan.
When the moon comes out at night,
Shining bright, with delight,
Then in dreams my heart takes flight,
Far off to Hindostan.

CHORUS:
Tizan, my maid of Hindostan,
Sunbeam of eastern skies!
I mean to steal you, if I can,
Dark-eyed maid of Hindostan.

To a little bungalow
That I know, there we’ll go,
Hearts and eyes with love aglow,
I and my Tizan.
What care we tho’ tigers roar
At our door evermore,
We’ll love as none loved before,
In sunny Hindostan.
